Microbial communities mediating algal detritus turnover under anaerobic conditions
BACKGROUND Algae encompass a wide array of photosynthetic organisms that are ubiquitously distributed in aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Algal species often bloom in aquatic ecosystems, providing a significant autochthonous carbon input to the deeper anoxic layers in stratified water bodies. In addition, various algal species have been touted as promising candidates for anaerobic biogas produ...
متن کاملHSC senescence upon irradiation.
In this issue of Blood, Shao et al report that a side effect of total body irradiation (TBI) is long-term bone marrow injury and thus dysfunctional hematopoiesis caused by the induction of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) senescence. Interestingly and unexpectedly, however, this happens in a manner independent of the cell-cycle regulators Ink4a and Arf, which play a major role in senescence in oth...
متن کاملDegradation pathways of PCB upon gamma irradiation.
In order to understand the modifications of the chromatographic profile of Aroclor 1260 upon gamma irradiation, a total of 14 pure polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners were separately irradiated in solution. Dechlorination was observed, and the generated products were investigated by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Degradation proceeds more rapidly in methanol/water mixture than i...
متن کاملPhotochemical Reactions of Microcystin-LR Following Irradiation with UV Light
Photochemical reactions of microcystin-LR, a toxic compound produced by some blue green algae, were investigated. Ultraviolet absorption of microcystin-LR was assessed. Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations indicated that absorption peak at 238 nm was mainly due to excitation of electrons from the linear chain structure Adda of microcystin-LR. Irradiation of microcystin-...
متن کاملEffects of ultrasonic irradiation upon Amoeba proteus.
The irradiation of living organisms with ultra sound causes effects in several ways (E l’p in er1) . High intensities damage the cells markedly, causing irreversible cell changes, rupture of cell walls etc. But even low intensities of ultrasound have been shown to affect cell parameters (see review by H ill2) . In this paper we will show some qualitative results of ultrasonic irradiation of Am...
